So, I got married on Sunday to a beautiful woman here from Lit and thought I'd share the experience a bit. I posted this also in the nerd thread on the playground, but only a couple of my friends go there after all.
There aren’t really any funny wedding stories to share, in fact our wedding went pretty damn near perfectly. The funniest thing that happened are some of SP’s college friends drank too much and got sick outside in the parking lot. The worst thing that happened was utilizing the backup plan for venue. It rained all night and our outdoor ceremony was all washed up, however the reception hall did an amazing job setting things up with such short notice and the wedding proceeded smoothly.
I did not have my camera to take photos of everything going on of course, but my friends probably took more than enough. Once I start getting those I’ll be sure to share. The tables looked fantastic, the center pieces were perfect, the meal was enjoyed by all, and the first dance proceeded with only a couple minor trips on the dress.
The speeches were all relatively short, but they were all sincere and beautiful. My speech, after thanking everyone who helped put the wedding together, and everyone for attending, went a little something like this, “As you all probably know, SP and I met under slightly unusual circumstances. We met online. When we finally decided to meet face to face I flew out to Halifax and had a friend there pick me up and drive me to her place. When she came out I lost myself in her green eyes and haven’t found myself since.”
All the staff working the event commented that it was the best wedding they’ve ever worked because everyone was so happy and polite. The DJ did a stellar job, we had everyone up on the dance floor at least once and only two or three songs that didn’t get at least a single dancer.
The night ended with a final dance between SP and I to our song, “Hey there Delilah” by the Plain White Ts. Oh, and then some post-wedding shagging.
Then they lived happily ever after.
The End
